The Michigan Supreme Court has re-appointed Macomb County Circuit Court Judges Kathy Viviano and Richard Caretti to handle the county’s business court docket.
Business or commercial disputes are defined by statute (MCL 600.8031(c)).
Viviano and Caretti “have done an excellent job carrying on the mantle of the business docket at the 16th Judicial Circuit Court, since the retirement of former Chief Judge (and Business Court Judge) John Foster,” said Chief Judge James M. Biernat Jr. “I am pleased that they will be continuing in their roles as Business Court Judges for the next six years and congratulate them on a job well done with many of the court’s most complex civil cases.”
Their six-year terms run until April 1, 2025.
Caretti was named to the circuit court bench in 2002 and has been elected to three six-year terms.
Viviano was elected to the bench in 2010 and re-elected three years ago.
There are more than a dozen business courts in operation across the state. Macomb County was the first to implement such a docket in 2011.
